Integrated regulation of the type III secretion system and other virulence determinants in Ralstonia solanacearum [PDF]
, 2006 In many plant and animal bacterial pathogens, the Type III secretion system (TTSS) that directly translocates effector proteins into the eukaryotic host cells is essential for the development of disease.

Gene Regulation and Speciation [PDF]
Trends in Genetics, 2017 Understanding the genetic architecture of speciation is a major goal in evolutionary biology. Hybrid dysfunction is thought to arise most commonly through negative interactions between alleles at two or more loci. Divergence between interacting regulatory elements that affect gene expression (i.e., regulatory divergence) may be a common route for these

Nanoplasmonic gene regulation [PDF]
Current Opinion in Chemical Biology, 2010 This review focuses on the recent developments in nanoplasmonic gene regulations. Types of nanoplasmonic carriers and DNA/RNA cargo are described. Strategies to liberate cargo from their carriers using NIR and enable on-demand silencing of endogenous intracellular genes are reviewed.

Identification of a prognosis-related phagocytosis regulator gene signature in medulloblastoma
HeliyonObjectives: The aims of this study were to screen for phagocytosis regulator-related genes in tissue samples from children with medulloblastoma (MB) and to construct a prognostic model based on those genes. Methods: Differentially expressed genes between
